Ft. Madison, Iowa

July 15, 2014

Fort Madison, Iowa is a small town that has a state prison. Many of the prison guards live in the town with their families. One of SOS team members, Linda, held a KIDS Club for the children. Sixty attended, some of them were kids from Christian families but ten children were saved. All were given “3 Things God Can Not Do” Bible tracts. Continue to pray for these young converts.

Matthew 19:14
But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me:for of such is the kingdom of heaven.

Fear Not

July 10, 2014

The Bible tells us not to fear over 365 times, and yet we do fear many things. Children fear the dark, monsters or snakes. Teens fear how their peers accept them. Young adults fear the present, job security, finances, relationships. Old people fear illness, poverty, and loss of loved ones.
All that and more sounds hopeless but there is Good News. We have Someone who is willing to take all our fears, problems and worries. His name is Jesus. All we have to do is give all our cares to Him and allow Him to work out the solution.

1 Peter 5:7
Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.

Jesus Loves Me

June 20, 2014

The hymn that has influenced children for Christ more than any other is this simply stated one, “Jesus Loves Me.”
Anna Bartlett Warner wrote this text in 1860 with her sister, Susan, as a part of one of the best-selling novels of that day. The novel was written by Susan, entitled “Say and Seal”.
In the novel, one of the characters, Mr. Linden, comforted Johnny Fax, a dying child, with the words of “Jesus Loves Me.”

(1) Jesus loves me! this I know,
For the Bible tells me so;
Little ones to Him belong,
They are weak but He is strong.

CHORUS: Yes, Jesus loves me!
Yes, Jesus loves me!
Yes, Jesus loves me!
The Bible tells me so.

(2) Jesus loves me! He who died
Heaven’s gate to open wide;
He will wash away my sin,
Let His little child come in.

(3) Jesus, take this heart of mine,.
Make it pure and wholly Thine;
On the cross You died for me,
I will try to live for Thee.

Ephesians 5:2
And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour.

Honor Our Savior, Our Country and Veterans

Forever Freedom

May 24, 2014

Memorial Day weekend. Time to honor the men and women in the military that fought bravely so that we can have freedom. Many died, some were injured and their lives changed forever.
Take time to pray for the families, and thank The Lord for the freedom we enjoy because of the sacrifice given by our brave military men and women.
Then remember the One who also sacrificed His life for our spiritual freedom, The Lord Jesus Christ.
The freedom we enjoy in the USA could be taken away, but the freedom we have in Jesus can never be taken from us if we have trusted Him as our personal Savior.

John 8:36
If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.

Jesus Cared for His Mother

May 9, 2014

Mother’s Day is just 2 days away. Time to honor our Mother. The Bible has a lot to say about Mothers but how Jesus cared for His Mother is evident by one scripture and it was one of the last things He said while He hung on the cross.
John 19:27
Then saith he to the disciple, Behold thy mother! And from that hour that disciple took her unto his own home.

This picture reminds us that when Jesus, the Messiah, reigns on earth animals will be at peace with one another as well as man. There is coming a day when there will be peace.
Isaiah 11:6
The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb,
and the leopard shall lie down with the kid;
and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together;
and a little child shall lead them.
